Ice Cream Salt, typically found in the seasonings section, is a specialized type of salt designed for making homemade ice cream. Unlike table salt, it has a large coarse grain that promotes the freezing process in the ice cream maker, resulting in a smoother and creamier ice cream texture.
This type of salt isn't meant for consumption. Instead, it lowers the freezing point of ice, providing the ideal, below-freezing temperature needed for perfecting your homemade dessert. Keep a bag on hand for those summer day dessert ambitions, and turn your kitchen into a mini gelateria.
